Deep River Blues

Lyricist: TraditionalVocalist: Mullins/Lanese

Let it rain, let pour,
Let it rain a whole lot more,
Let the rain drive right on,
Let the wind sweep all along,
I got them deep river blues.
Well, my gal, Sal's a good old pal,
Walks just like a water foul,
She got them deep river blues.
There ain't no one to cry for me,All the fish out on a spree,
I got them deep river blues.
Why don't you give me back my boat,
I'm gonna sail her if she'll float,
I got them deep river blues.
I'm gettin' back to my Muscle Shoals,
Things are better there I'm told,
I got them deep river blues.
Let it rain, let pour,
Let it rain a whole lot more,
Let the rain drive right on,
Let the wind sweep all along,
I got them deep river blues.
